Oh God yes.
This honestly may be the most satisfying thing I've ever done. It's gonna take forever to finish but I really don't mind that much.
Also, this method works beautifully to remove header studs.

This weekend I'm going to finish cleaning the block, clean up all the hardware I'm too cheap to replace, and attempt to remove the lower timing cover, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to break the crank bolt loose without borrowing some major tools, apparently the torque spec is 303ft-lbs.
hock:
I also need to sit down and figure out where the hell all the tiny little washers and o-rings that come in the HG kit are supposed to go. I paid for 'em, seems like I should use them all. :dunno:
